2010 Game of the Year Critics
Poll

The judges of the Game Critics
Awards are honored to announce the annual Game of the Year
awards. Eligible games must have been commercially
released in North America between January 1, 2010 and December
31, 2010.

To arrive at the top ten games of 2010,
the judges applied a points system. Each judge nominated 10 games and awarded
a score between 5 and 30 points to their chosen games, with a total point
allotment of exactly 100. The cumulative total for each nominated game was then
calculated to generate the ten highest scoring games. More details are available
in the rules section.
